WARRINGTON AND MELODY FOR

THRILLER

WILL MR. FROST WIN ON FLYING TOURIST ?

(By Rapier.)

ELODY and Warrington for the "Doubie" will be the cry on the course this afternoon at the Valley, and they are the best | combination. Should Warrington disappoint, however, a large divi- dend can be expected, but I hardly think it will exceed the one last Meeting which followed National Day's eclipse and Flying Tourist's sensational win,

The Australians race should provide a real thriller with Portia, City of Brisbane, and Woodland Stag in the running. This, how- ever, is only one of eight races in what promises to be a bumper Meeting.

Blue Star won

the Hong Kong Handicap under Mr. Pan in 2.89.6 earlier in the season, and he was carrying 7 lb. less than he is this afternoon on his first appearance in the second half.

If it is a slow race wasch out for Sunup, but I rather fancy Mr. Frost will set the pace on the Dunbar favourite. Though I have a great regard for Portle I have a snaky feeling City of Brisbane, will win.

Should Rosy Marn go out she will have to be watched as she holds the five furlongs record, but I am afraid the extra distance will prove 100 much...
